Dear Rosanne, It was such a pleasure meeting you and spending time with you recently. Thank you again for fitting me into your busy schedule that day. I am so grateful for your kindness. I wanted to let you know that I feel as though I have gained tremendous benefit from our time together. I believe, that as a direct result of our work, I am feeling more comfortable behind the wheel. Thank you for sending me the recording of our session. I listen to it often, and find it very calming and helpful. The positive affirmations have been wonderful, and I am working on increasing my water intake and changing my eating habits.

She is extremely bright, very well educated and has a remarkable imagination that she uses to assist her clients with their problems. Homework assignments are designed especially to meet each client’s needs. This builds a sense of trust. She is genuine in her effort to help others. She not only has intelligence but a wonderful heart. She shows her clients great consideration in all aspects of their therapy by teaching new ways of seeing themselves and how they solve their problems. Many of these I have brought with me and will keep for the rest of my life. I highly recommend Rosanne MacDonald. – Sincerely, Carolyn G., LCSW

Dear Rosanne, I want to thank you for the work we did together. I am amazed at the difference it has made in my life. I realized what hidden fears and doubts about myself were holding me back. Since our sessions together, I have completed my book and started on a second volume. In between I spent two months writing a children’s book which just seemed to write itself. I have sent it off to a publisher with great expectations. I can honestly say that my life since our work together has been full of light, creativity, love and humor. You truly are an inspiration! Love and appreciation from your friend, Cornelia

“Thank you for everything — you have changed my life and those lives that I will touch as well.”

The Motivational Gift of Compassion or Mercy, is the ability to show great love, and deep feeling toward the needs of others. This is Rosanne MacDonald, an angel in my life! (Romans 12:15)

Can an old dog learn new tricks? Hmm . . . well, my best friend must have thought so! With the gracious of hearts, she saw a pattern in my life that I didn’t and knew Rosanne could help. On a trip home to see my family after several years, I had a life altering appointment with Rosanne, compliments of my BFF.

I had developed a pattern of crisis management for all of my adult life. These crises were big, some huge, I’d been a strong woman through them, would pull myself up, dust off and get ready for the next one; with the proverbial “when is the next shoe going to drop” expectation. Well, 50 years of coping this way I got blind-sided. I was sick, fighting for my life and exhausting all traditional medical treatment. I was really not expecting to win this round. With the love of my husband, family and a few friends that could stomach the heartache and the out-of-box innovative treatment of a doctor who has dedicated his life to helping people become well, I’m recovering!

I met with Rosanne once while I was in California. In that one session I found the strength, guilt-free ability to be grateful, to give myself grace, to be truly happy and to follow and make what I now know is my passion. Worry about the rest I suppose I could, but I’m so busy loving the rewards of being compassionate, helping others, enjoying their progress, I believe the rest will follow. Up until this point I’d only made 2 choices using my heart and they are the most precious ones of no regret, now I’ve made a 3rd and I’m sure there will be many more. I have had several other sessions with Rosanne via the phone. Is she as effective 3,000 miles away? – Absolutely! I’m now happier than I’ve ever been in my life, finding great joy in being kind, open and loving to others, setting and reaching goals I’d never thought possible. No matter how old you are, or where you are, if you’re not happy with your life or some part of it, call Rosanne, you owe it to yourself, you deserve it!

“Dear Rosanne, — So excited to tell you how your “Fear of Public Speaking” CD helped me!”

I only have listened to it once so far and it made a huge difference. The week prior to listening to it I actually turned down an opportunity to present my product in front of a group because I was not prepared and felt very intimidated. Feeling very frustrated with myself, I finally sat down and listened to your CD I had bought a few weeks before. I really listened to what you said and allowed myself to take it all in. Two days after, I had another opportunity to get in front of a group and speak. I got up there and seriously felt like I was chatting with my family and friends. I felt calm, told my story, shared my product and included others in the conversation. I even made some jokes and had fun! Thank you so much for offering wonderful tools to improve yourself and your quality of life. – Sincerely, Lisa

“I’ve referred many of my patients to Rosanne MacDonald, C.Ht. and they’ve all been exceptionally satisfied.”

But I wanted to try her out for myself just to see what they’ve all raved about. And, no doubt, Rosanne provides an effective service with long-lasting results. I gained improvement in my overall well-being in only one session.

I would recommend Rosanne to anyone who needs help with anxiety, depression, weight loss, self-esteem or just a quick pick-me-up. Thank you, Rosanne, for doing such good work

“I would highly recommend Rosanne to anyone who wants to improve their lifestyle.”

I went to Rosanne to lose weight. I was severely overweight and needed to lose about 90 lbs. I had heard about hypnosis and thought I would give it a try. I had no idea what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised! I was in complete control and there was no feeling of being in a trance. With Rosanne’s help, I shed about 50 lbs. in twelve weeks and I am still dropping more! My physical health is vastly improved and getting better. I would highly recommend Rosanne to anyone who wants to improve their lifestyle. I feel better, look better and have a better outlook on life.

Thank you for all your help, Rosanne.

“Generally feeling very grateful and optimistic!”

Yes, I have put some of what we worked on into practice – namely, listening to the CD you made me and saying the affirmations consistently; and I have gotten very good results. I am currently understudying two roles. No guaranteed performances, but you never know; and meanwhile, the salary is very good, and it’s great to be working! I also hired a new theatrical agent, which I’m happy about. Generally feeling very grateful and optimistic! THANK YOU!

“How can you thank someone for saving your life?”

I was so overweight that I had gotten to the point of not being able to look at myself in the mirror and not be disgusted. My husband and I decided it was time to try something new, and he went to see hypnotherapist Rosanne MacDonald. When he came home and told me of his experience, I have to say I was skeptical. After he attended a few sessions and I watched him drop the pounds, I decided to give it a try. I was sure that not only could I not be hypnotized, but that I would never lose weight in this fashion. I was never so wrong!”
“I learned a great deal about my strengths and weaknesses. I learned to relax, trust myself and have learned to love myself. I have lost a total of 118 lbs. and countless inches! I exercise everyday, and I eat healthy. This is the first time in my life I am not on a diet. I am leaner, firmer and healthier now. Rosanne helped me believe in myself.

“Please, if you are ready to quit the “sticks” for good, you MUST seek professional help from Rosanne MacDonald, C.Ht.”

I was a long time smoker, quitting 8 or 9 times in the course of 30 years, only to fail again because I lacked the “Behavior Tools” to quit permanently, this is where Rosanne came in. From our very first meeting, Rosanne was compassionate, caring and attentive and she never judged. We shared many conversations together, because it was important that she get to know ME!

With Rosanne’s guidance and behavior modification technique, today, I am smoke-free and loving every minute of it! It’s been said that people come in and out of your life for a reason and Rosanne is one of those people to me. Please, if you are ready to quit the “sticks” for good, you MUST seek professional help from Rosanne MacDonald, C.Ht. Thank you again, Rosanne!

“After years of struggle, our son’s speech is perfect thanks to Rosanne MacDonald.”

When we came to Rosanne MacDonald, our 7-year old son, Alex, had a dysfluency problem. Years of speech therapy had only resulted in minimal improvement. That’s when we decided to give hypnotherapy a try.

We were impressed with Rosanne from the start. After reviewing our son’s medical history and a very comprehensive analysis, she went right to the root of the problem. In our son’s case it was his extensive surgical history through his infant and toddler years, which manifested itself as dysfluency. Once she addressed this through hypnotherapy, he released those childhood traumas and now we’re happy to say his speech is perfect!

No one could ever put a price tag on beautiful, fluent speech. Rosanne MacDonald is a miracle worker and our family is truly indebted to her. We cannot begin to express our gratitude for what she has given our family.

“Rosanne is a shining star in my universe; firm in her process yet highly compassionate, understanding, and caring.”

The first time I spoke with Rosanne my life was filled with sleepless nights, anxiety, and stress. During our conversation Rosanne promised me that I would feel better after one session. Sure enough she was right, I did. After working with me through several intense and very productive sessions I can truthfully say I am now virtually anxiety free and my sleep pattern has returned to normal. Rosanne is a shining star in my universe; firm in her process yet highly compassionate, understanding, and caring. I recommend her unequivocally to anyone who might benefit from her services. You won’t find a better hypnotherapist anywhere.

Rene P.Actress

“I needed to find peace after my husband had been diagnosed with a serious illness and I also needed to increase my income as an actress.”

Rosanne has a calming spirit, and she encourages big goals. She is serious about her work and requires that her clients be serious too. Since meeting with her, my life has changed for the better. I listen to my CD everyday, and I now enjoy time with my husband instead of focusing on his illness, and my career is blossoming nicely. In the last month, I’ve booked two national commercials, one print job, and I’m on hold for another regional commercial! If you are committed to change, if you are ready to move in a positive, productive direction, then Rosanne MacDonald is for you. I tell everyone I know about her, and that I owe her a great big THANK YOU!!

Susan

“I no longer feel controlled by my feelings of anxiousness and depression.”

I initially came to Rosanne to work on issues with anxiety and depression that I was experiencing mostly in my relationships, but also on a smaller level at work. I was able to realize where these issues were stemming from and deal with them in a positive way. I am now able to no longer linger or dwell on the negative aspects of my life and have learned to enjoy what I have and realize how grateful I am for my relationships with friends, family and even co-workers.

I feel much better about the outlook on my life and my relationships.

“If you feel you are ‘stuck’ or ‘going in reverse’, shift your gear to ‘drive’ and see Rosanne as soon as possible!”

I was having difficulty focusing and unable to concentrate on my business to move it forward to where I wanted it to be. I had been feeling this way for several months and tried different methods to become ‘unstuck’. After only two sessions with Rosanne I was able to find my ‘target market’ (after two years of struggle!!)

Exponentially I have gained confidence, insight, and perseverance in my business.

“First Session . . . a non-smoker!”

A really effortless improvement with no withdrawal problems at all! I didn’t think this was possible, but Rosanne made it happen!

“Whether you’re getting back on track or trying to change an unwanted behavior, Rosanne MacDonald is the best.”

I have been trained and certified as a hypnotherapist, so I speak from experience that Rosanne MacDonald has the expertise to change and/or enhance your life. She is passionate, compassionate and loving and will work with you with respect toward your personal journey. I see her myself from time to time for a personal ‘tune-up’ to live my life to its fullest. She gets me back on track!

Whether you’re seeking to get ‘back on track’ or to change an unwanted behavior, Rosanne is the one I would highly recommend to gently assist and guide you.

“After one session with Rosanne, I quit smoking.”

I would love to tell everyone in the world how Rosanne MacDonald helped me stop smoking! I had smoked regularly for 15 years. I knew I needed to quit and soon. I looked up Rosanne and made my appointment. I loved her one-on-one counseling. I quit smoking my first week and have not looked back since. I am now seeing Rosanne for weight management. I trust Rosanne and I am glad I found her.

Paula S.Realtor

“Thanks to Rosanne, I’m back in control of my life and its direction.”

Rosanne MacDonald has made a significant impact in my life. I believe fate led me to her and through our sessions, I have been able to maintain clear “present” thinking, recall for testing, and goal visualization to my future. I truly believe in my success and my “right” to achieve that success. She has a gifted ability to help and make anyone feel comfortable in the process. I am a cheerleader for Rosanne MacDonald and would encourage anyone who is open to taking a step toward and into a bright joy-filled future to consult with her.

“While Rosanne is helping you, she’s also teaching you how to help yourself.”

I enjoy my hypnotherapy appointments with Rosanne MacDonald. She is someone I can totally open up to. Of course she is helping me, but she’s also teaching me how to help myself. She is a total, absolute joy and I would still pay to see her even if I were perfect … or should I say when I am perfect!

Karen D.

“I found my sessions with you so inspiring and you, personally, were one of the most inspiring people I have ever met. I am so much clearer and happier and feel that I am finally on the right path for my future and that I owe this breakthrough to you.”

I wanted to let you know what was going on with me and tell you what a big impact you had on turning my life around. Since our sessions last summer, I decided not to proceed with the business I was in because I felt that it was not the right fit for me.

Actually, I found my sessions with you so inspiring and you, personally, were one of the most inspiring people I have ever met, that I myself decided to look into a career in hypnotherapy. I am so much clearer and happier and feel that I am finally on the right path for my future and that I owe this breakthrough to you. So, thank you.

L.B.

“Thank you, Rosanne; you’ve given me a confidence and a positive outlook about myself and my life that I never thought possible.”

I sought out Rosanne’s help in two areas. Specifically, stress management and weight loss, of which both were intertwined. I found myself over-eating to compensate for stress that I was dealing with. I attended several sessions with Rosanne and complimented those sessions with her stress and weight loss CDs. The experience was phenomenal! Not only did I lose the weight effortlessly, but I felt I’d been given the tools to deal with stressful situations in the future. I implement those tools whenever necessary, as they are now just a part of me.

I also don’t go to sleep without listening to one of Rosanne’s CDs. The CDs are relaxing, motivational and keep me focused on my goals. I love them! I greatly value Rosanne and my relationship with her. I recommend her to friends and know she is a resource I can continue to tap into to help me with life’s ebbs and flows. Thank you, Rosanne – you’ve given me a confidence and a positive outlook about myself and my life that I never thought possible. With much gratitude and love, L.B.

“In one Hypnovitality® session, Rosanne MacDonald put an end to my strife.”

For thirty years I tried to quit drinking coffee. In one Hypnovitality® session, Rosanne MacDonald put an end to my strife. Six months later, and I still have no desire to drink the stuff. Not only did I receive excellent results, but also Rosanne’s truly marvelous and personal attention made way for a delightful experience. Her careful and inviting presence made me feel like a member of her family.

In my second session, she freed me of my addiction to sugar, which was nothing less than miraculous for a man with a sweet tooth as big as Texas! I am certain she helped me invoke a new confidence and inner strength that only a truly gifted therapist can accomplish.

“Dread and fear were replaced by calm and confidence – that in and of itself is worth millions.”

I sought Rosanne’s services for exam anxiety related to the California bar exam and related insomnia.

After failing the bar exam twice, I wanted to give it one last shot. With Rosanne’s assessment and approach, I was able to find the calm and confidence I needed to actively engage in the exam preparation process. For the first time, I was able to sleep soundly every night of the exam without any form of sleep inducing medication, allowing clear thinking. I know that Rosanne’s techniques gave me the edge I needed to finally pass the bar exam.

I feel that I can now accomplish any goal I set for myself. I had heard good things about hypnotherapy from others. But, I am still amazed at how effective this experience was. I would refer anyone experiencing exam anxiety to Rosanne. Dread and fear were replaced by calm and confidence – that in and of itself is worth millions.

“After 2 years, I am still maintaining my new healthy weight at 76 years old!”

I am a 76-year-old man that was overweight, suffers from arthritis and endured a hip replacement a few years back. Two years ago, I went to my doctor for my yearly check-up and weighed in at 282 lbs. I knew then that to become more mobile, a bunch of pounds would need to come off, so I contacted Ms. MacDonald.

I met with Ms. MacDonald for the first time the 3rd of December 2004. After discussing her business practice, and my weight problem, we agreed on a number of sessions that would be required for me to accomplish my goal of reducing my weight by 25 lbs.

I followed Ms. MacDonald’s program and was able to shed the 25 lbs. well in advance of the time frame agreed upon! I continued with the instructions learned; eating healthier and less, and within six months lost an additional 15 lbs. The great news is that, after two years, I am still maintaining my weight between 240-244 lbs. and as mobile as I was when I was 65 years old!”– A very happy client of 40 lbs. less than two years ago.

“Now, it’s not difficult to consistently exercise.”

For years I found it was very hard to maintain a consistent workout/exercise program. I went to Rosanne with the hope she could help me to be more regular and consistent in working out. Immediately following my first hypnosis session with Rosanne, I was able to exercise on a regular basis. I am very happy with the results I achieved with Rosanne’s help.

LindaHomemaker

“Since I’ve been seeing Rosanne MacDonald, I’ve lost 20 pounds.”

Since I started seeing Rosanne for hypnotherapy, I’ve made positive lifestyle changes in my eating patterns and the way I perceive myself. I’ve lost 20 pounds without the struggle and frustration I’ve experienced on past weight loss programs. Rosanne keeps me focused and I always leave my sessions feeling focused and positive.

“I originally wanted to release weight, but also benefitted in many other areas, such as stress release and emotional health.”

I sought out Rosanne’s services after meeting her at a network luncheon. I knew of someone who had gone to her for private sessions and had some breakthroughs.

I originally wanted to release weight, but also benefitted in many other areas, such as stress release and emotional health. I practice many of her teachings, such as positive affirmations in my business and personal life. I would definitely recommend Rosanne and will continue on my journey with her as a part of it! – Julie

Wow! Now I have the motivation to continue on to my goal. The CDs provided with the class have changed my mindset. I am more positive and less tense! Thanks for your inspiration and help, Rosanne!” – Lesley
